Hamas Condemns Israeli Actions in Lebanon, Warns of Escalation

Hamas has condemned Israel's actions in Lebanon, calling it a dangerous escalation and holding Israel responsible for the consequences.

The condemnation follows intensified Israeli strikes in southern Lebanon and Beirut, resulting in casualties and heightened tensions.

Hamas, in a statement, decried the Israeli aggression and asserted its solidarity with Lebanon, urging Arab and Islamic nations to unite against Israeli actions that it says threaten regional security.

The Israeli military said it struck over 70 sites in Lebanon, including weapons storage and rocket launch locations.

Hezbollah has claimed responsibility for launching rockets into Israel, stating the action was in retaliation for recent events and in defense of Lebanon.

The recent exchange of fire follows a period of heightened tensions and violations of a ceasefire agreement.

According to reports, Israeli strikes resulted in dozens of deaths and numerous injuries.

Tensions have been escalating since October, with violations of the ceasefire becoming increasingly frequent.
